I am heading out to do a quick user migration and would like a bit of an
assist.  There is a tool built into XP for migrating a user from XP to
another machine will it work with the same tool in Windows 7?  Normally we
blow away user profiles and create new but this is a special case and I
really hate the idea of being forced to do that if this tool will work as
advertised.  Hardware for old machine is being retired, new machine is
waiting, and there is a 1 TB USB drive sitting next to the machines waiting
for data.  I have seen this done with XP to Vista but I have not done it
myself.  I am pulling the Windows 7 AIK tool now if that would work better.
I will have to pull about 160 GB of data mostly pic's and various audio
files from one machine to another.

I know there is IPod files there as well so am I looking at a nightmare with
this migration?

Thanks for any insight here,

Jon
